Okay, so I never went away to college. I went locally and bunked with the parents. When this show came out in '98 my sister, who did go away to college, told me about it. I was skeptical, thinking that I could and would never enjoy a show that I couldn't possibly relate to or understand. I was wrong. I started watching around episode 7. I was totally hooked. The characters were amazing and the scripts so well written. The acting was flawless. Every Sunday my sister and I would have a date with the TV. I don't think I missed a single episode. But, I was thoroughly bummed when the show ended. (Although, I thought that if they had continued it would be hard to pull off.)
I LOVE that I now can own all the shows and have them forever. I can watch them over and over again. I have a daughter who is three, and I can't wait to watch them all with her someday.
For some reason this show has touched me to the core. I am not sure why, but it has and does. It's worth every penny and hour spent watching.
